This guy sounds like all the bad guys from the last ten years of murder movies all rolled into one. Like he might be the worst of those books you have there. If he was real, and really like that, then I should arrest him, right?” Matthew asked, hoping he could show the boy that he would protect him, and he could tell him the truth now.“ No, Deputy. Because he is real, and he is really like that, and you should run. . Dennis Sharpe
About This Quote

In this quote, Matthew's character gets us to see the real world for what it is: a place where we all live and function. We live in a world that is full of bad guys, and we all have our own ideas of what we think of them. In Matthew's mind, this bad guy and the bad guys he knew did not compare to this guy. If this guy was real and really like that, then Matthew would have to arrest him. The fact that this guy is real and really like that, means that there is nothing he can do about it.
